Purify is a song by Metallica which appears on their album St. Anger. I’ve read that a lot of fans regard Purify to be the worst song on St. Anger but I don’t think I’d go that far. Purify doesn’t sound too bad as it opens up, well until …

Jay-Z

This is a very old and very rare Jay-Z music video and single from way back in 1994, before his rags-to-riches single “In My Lifetime”. Some say that this was rare and unreleased. It’s called “I Can’t Get Wit’ That” and to be perfectly honest, …
